I just recently bought an aftermarket cd player and am in the process of installing it. I purchased a wiring harness but it has RCA outputs... my new cd player does not have RCA inputs. The speakers are the only thing left that I have to hook up and this problem stopped me, everything else works fine. What can i do? Please help, I am very excited about my new player but cant use it.

 

I would take the harness back to where you got it and ask if they can supply adapters with the right connectors so you can complete the connections to your speakers. Or, a lot of electronic supply stores carry a variety of adapters for switching one type of output to another. They'll have male to female, or female to male, or whatever configuration is needed to adapt the type of connection you've got to the type you need. Good luck.

 

The only thing that the cd player has is the harness its self. Do they make an adapter to switch from RCA to regular wiring?

 

If by "regular wiring" you mean bare wires without any type of connector on the end, then either cut the RCA output connectors off the harness and strip the wires, or, if you don't want to alter the harness (in case you need to return it) buy short lengths of patch cables with the appropriate RCA output connectors on them that will match your harness's connectors, and then strip the opposite ends of the patch cables.
